Trail Description: This trail connects Victors Landing and the Bachelor Lake Cabin, and is made up of an old logging spur plus a newly constructed "connector" trail.
The starting point for these waypoints is at "Victors Landing" which is an old logging road junction that branches off the road that has become the Edwards lake trail. (Jct 05). It is sign posted. From the junction, the old logging spur goes south, climbing from 1090m to 1150m, contouring along the western face of Mistie Peak north ridge. This offers numerous views of Tanis Lake, which has often been confused with Bachelor lake. You never actually see Bachelor Lake. After 0.8km on the logging spur, you come to a junction where you have to leave the logging spur and head directly down the slope on a freshly cleared wide path. In 2016, this junction had new yellow signs, some of which were broken. We refer to this junction as the "Golden Lookout" junction. Once you leave the Golden Lookout, you are on the newly constructed "connector" trail that drops down the slopes to Bachelor Lake. In only 0.3 km, you run into the end of the Bachelor Lake trail, and from there it is a hundred feet or so to the cabin.
